Is my quail OK?

[CuteQuail]

One of my newly hatched quail has feet that are curled in and can't walk. Will it improve or not?

Seems like @ButtonquailGirl14 might be able to help.

Get a bandaid, and make it's feet flat between it folded in half. It will not improve unless you do this fast.. I'll try to get a pic

You should be fine! Just do it asap! Hope she gets better soon!

Thanks for the help! She's all bandaged up and I am hoping that she will improve.

@ButtonquailGirl14 , are buttons different in that if they come out with curled feet like that they are unlikely to improve on their own? Probably 30% of my coturnix have had curled feet for up to a day and they have always corrected themselves. Or is it just a super-extra-preventative measure (I'm sure it can't hurt!)?

Splayed leg at the actual hip/leg bones - totally different story. Have a poor wee one bandaid hobbled right now for that
